Spent the night on the couch following a fairly intense session at the osteopath that afternoon. Stumbled across a documentary on Sonic Youth followed by Monkey Dust, I recommend both. Loved the way Sonic Youth doco made their constraints their strengths. They could've very easily given into the fact that they weren't (all) musicians and didn't know how to play instruments in the classic sense, instead this became one of the things that really enabled them to open their music up. Similarly they could've been hamstrung by not having enough money to do exactly what they wanted in the beginning or later ironically, by having enough money to do whatever they wanted.
